USC Trojans (CH2K8)

Re: USC Trojans (CH2K8)

I can't say I really have a strategy on offense besides look for an opening and go after it. This leads me to go into some extremely cold stretches...I mean really cold!

Maybe this is why I'm now 4-7 in the Pac-10...yes I played a couple games:

Oregon : Win
Arizona St. : Loss
Stanford : Loss

I'm terrible!

I'll play Oregon St. sometime today and post a recap.

Dude, I just linked to your home page for this for the first time a few seconds ago and DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMNNNNNNNNNN NICE work man! Wow. However, the only bit of information that I was really after I was unable to attain. I am a recruiting guy. I log into www.scout.com every single day in real life to read about recruits. I love the recruiting in this game as well. Can you point me to what information you have given on next year's recruiting targets? I want to see what kind of talent you are pulling at USC.

You know I was looking for something to add to my site. That could very well be it. I could have a "Recruit tracker". Take the Pac-10 recruits and then track their progress and maybe the 5* recruits around the NCAA.

If you notice I have two "vs. the Pac-10" banners and I wanted something to fill the other one.

It would be a lot of work but I can promise you that I would track it as I love the aspect of recruiting. Over time we might even get a better understanding of what type of recruits are good on this game. For example, I was concerned about my PG Gaines that was being recruited by no other big schools at all. It was so bad that in his Sr. Year I think I had to make a single phone call and offer a scholarship to him and he instantly signed so I figured he would be a dud or something but he is turning out to be a STUD! Go figure.

Anyways, at the very least maybe you could add every kid that you are interested in on your target list and the data you have on him and his top schools so we can follow that. Or perhaps I am the only loser that really gets into this and would bother to read it, I don't know. Either way, fantastic job and I will be following regardless but more recruiting INFO would be really cool IMO.

Yea I tried to set something up with this...too much work. I'll just add some more info within the thread.

I'll mention this guy off the top of my head: Donovan Hudson

This shooting guard is a guy I REALLY WANTED, however he chose to sign with Arizona, therefore I'm going to remember him when we face them next year.

I'm really into recruiting as well, not as much as you, but I like it. However it would take too much time/effort...and I don't want to do that!

Re: USC Trojans (CH2K8)

Very nice win! I am assuming you meant to type 0-2 instead of 2-0 in your write up.

Hey, can you post Fellows attributes? This type of output that you are getting from his is EXACTLY what I am after for a center. What is his pro hype at? Is he 2 years and gone or what? I think a stud center is HUUUUUUGE in this game because when nothing is going right and you can't get out and run and gun you can dump it down to him and try to get something going. Also, double digit rebounds are HUGE as well. I am pretty sure that rebounds has dictated the result of every single game that I have ever played on this game.

Nice win, keep up the momentum.

Re: USC Trojans (CH2K8)

Great win, it looks like Fellows is a solid horse for you getting it done on the blocks and on the boards. Keep up the momentum and make a run for the PAC 10 championship to get a trophy in that trophy case! Good luck.

Re: USC Trojans (CH2K8)





This game was incredible. By far the best clutch shooting performance I've ever had in a game. In OT I was just jacking them up and they were going in. 14 threes!!!

Oh and Angelo Fellows fouled out...he had a terrible game...got early fouls and never got into my offensive flow.

I get to face #5 seed Washington in the finals. They beat Arizona, who is really good and handled me easily last time. I'm pretty sure Washington beat me both times as well so I will have my hands full. They have quick guards and Jon Brocking and that Amaning guy always play well.

Should be fun and hopefully I can bring this one home. #5/#6 title game...kinda weird.

Nice W's to solidify your NCAA Tourney bid. The 2nd UCLA game sounds like one of those games that makes you fall in love with your team

Foul trouble will cripple a team. They gave this one away.

I almost gave up in this one when I was down late. Then I was like I'll jack up a few 3's...they went in. I'm projected as a #6 seed right now. A win will probably put me in the 4/5 range which would be really nice. Plus I'd like to win the Pac-10 Tourney Trophy!
